Joe Pesci gets back to his gangster roots as he joins the cast of the mob biopic Gotti: Three Generations. He will reportedly play the Dapper Don's deputy, Angelo Ruggiero. The film stars John Travolta as John Gotti, Sr. and is directed by Nick Cassevetes. In talks for a supposed major role is Lindsey Lohan. This is the first film about Gotti, Sr. approved by his son. The one-time Gambino crime family boss was convicted in 1992 of five murders, loan sharking, illegal gambling, obstruction of justice, tax evasion and bribery. Travolta calls this "probably the most interesting untold story in this country."
